Happiness surely is meeting an internal deadline for sample chapters. What's really great about this system is the feedback. And, I have a crackerjack editor; so, I am really looking forward to her comments.

Summer in Cedar Falls is my favorite time of year. The trees are full and green, and the garden outdoes itself. If you care to see some of the photos of the garden, please follow me on Facebook and take a look at my album.

I also tweet on Twitter, but I must admit, not often, but when I do, it is a lot of fun. Writing books keeps me very occupied.
